Official measurements revealed for Mark Sears at 2024 NBA Draft Combine
The 2024 NBA Draft Combine is underway in Chicago as draft hopefuls are being measured on Monday. Mark Sears of Alabama is going through the NBA Draft process, while maintaining his college eligibility.
The NBA has released measurements for Sears, who is one of the smaller prospects in the draft.
Mark Sears has measured in at 5’10.25″ without shoes on, per the NBA. His height was listed at 6’1″ while playing at Alabama.
Sears averaged 21.5 points per game for the Crimson Tide this season, tallying 4.2 rebounds and 4.0 assists per game, as well. He led Alabama to its first Final Four in program history this past season.
The Ohio transfer has played four seasons of college basketball. In 133 total games, including 114 starts, he has logged 2,149 total points, 561 rebounds and 467 assists.
Sears’ hand length measured in at 8 inches. His hand width is 8.5 inches. He also has a 6’2″ wingspan and a standing reach of 7’8″.
It will be interesting to see how the measurements impact Sears’ draft stock as he continues to go through the process.
As a senior, Mark Sears logged career-high averages nearly across the board during his second season with Alabama — and only got better as the season progressed. During Alabama’s Final Four, Sears averaged an elevated 24.2 points. He logged 20 or more points on 22 separate occasions, which included 30-point performances four different times.

2024 NBA Draft Big Board: Ranking the Top 40 prospects ahead of combine
Ahead of the 2024 NBA Draft Combine, On3’s James Fletcher ranked the top 40 prospects in the draft.
Fletcher has Alex Sarr of France at No. 1, followed by Zaccharie Risacher of France, Reed Sheppard of Kentucky, Donovan Clingan of UConn and Rob Dillingham of Kentucky to round out the top five.
Mark Sears also made the top 40, coming in at No. 28. Here’s what Fletcher had to say about Sears:
“Mark Sears burst onto the scene as a senior at Alabama, leading his team to the Final Four with clutch plays, while averaging 21.1 points. He also stepped up defensively late in the season.
The comparisons to Jalen Brunson’s style of play not only describe his game, but help show a potential NBA role as the Knicks guard takes the league by storm.”
